[caiman-discuss] Complaint about Dwarf-caiman on b72

[Anil Gulecha]

Hi,

Having heard of the great reviews of dwarf-caiman, I was going to
present it to a group of 30.

The way the laptop HDD was configured was like this:
Patition 1: 30 gb (windows, ntfs)
partition 2: 20 gb (ntfs)
partition 3: 25 gb (ntfs)

So in the partion select step these are seen as ntfs, ntfs, ntfs..

I select the third, and change ntfs to solaris. And hit next, upon
which I'm presented with a

"Unsupported partitioning configuration"

"SXDE does not support changing the partition type when two or more of
that type exist on the disk. Please quit the installer .. run FDISK in
the terminal window to create solaris partition. Then restart the
installer."

What possible connection might the number of NTFS partition have on
installing solaris? The above configuration is _very_ common. A very
big portion of the audience (only-windows users) is being cut off.

Regards
Anil
